Bridging Our Divides. Building Our Community.

Bridge Builders Charlotte is a network of campus-community partnerships bridging religious difference to build a stronger Charlotte. Formed in collaboration with Interfaith Youth Core (IFYC), Bridge Builders Charlotte's first phase addressed Covid-related concerns from food insecurity to learning loss through the lens of interfaith engagement. This spring, campus teams joined IFYC's national Faith in the Vaccine initiative, which leverages the influence of faith communities and other trusted nonprofits to overcome barriers to vaccine information and access. Thanks to a generous grant from The Duke Endowment, our expanded outreach will touch the lives of thousands of unvaccinated community members.
